Rainy Season...

Nobody ever told me that rainy season begins in August! Before coming I had expected to encounter the hottest weather known to man in August. I have been very surprised by the amount of rain we have had! I have been here for two weeks and it has down poured for some portion of every day except one. Last night the rain was so heavy that several of our staff members were stuck off base because of flooding. My little room is up in the attic of the main building on campus... right under a tin roof. It sounds like one hundred charging buffalo when it rains! All this rain has been quite a different experience fore me...
